Gotta say, I’m really enjoying the finalized look, although I wish we could have gotten more posts from you regarding the process of refining the finished UI. :P Although, of course, it’s not too late to give us a “Designing Firefox 4″ retrospective…

I don’t understand why when you right click on a link, the two options of opening in a new window and opening on a new tab has been switched around since the last version. This is particular annoying when you are used to right clicking and selecting open in a new tab, without having to think about, and now it opens it in a window. Come on!

How can it be, that when there’s actually people responsible for the look-and-feel, with FF4:

– F6 no longer works with Tabs on Top
– You stole Ctrl-E from Windows users for Panorama, then implement Ctrl-Shift-E instead (!!!)

There is a good reason people don’t use Ctrl-L and Ctrl-K, and it seems silly I would have to explain this to a Principal Designer, but…

Most people run Mozilla on a PC, are right-handed, and use a mouse. Feel free to familiarise yourself with keyboard layouts (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Keyboard_layout) and come to the conclusion, that for Latin script based keyboard (note: this includes China and India) Ctrl-E is conveniently placed on the left side.

I’ve downloaded it and i am loving it however there are certain plug-ins that does not work with the latest update but i am sure the developers will be keen to update their plug-ins as the browser has surpassed my expectations.

I have to confess that I do not see any of the changes to the interface as an improvement. The use of color has been lost, so it looks very clinical and drab. I do not want to lose the menu bar for a button. I do not find tabs on top to be more logical in any way. I find the other things discussed in the video such as app tabs and sync to be totally incomprehensible. The only thing I agree with is that you are correct in suggesting that many (but not all) of the things that have been changed can be changed back. I think it is a shame to have to rely on a 3rd party theme to get the familiar FF 3.6 look back – that should have been a native option within the program.

If you are in uncomfortable position and have no money to get out from that point, you would need to receive the business loans. Because it should aid you emphatically. I get short term loan every time I need and feel myself fine because of it.

Welcome to my blog. I'm a Principal Designer on Firefox, helping to develop its interactive design, visual design, and overall vision. On this blog you can find information about many of the user facing features being developed for future versions of Firefox.
